If you are a K-12 educator and have registered your wiki with our free K-12 education Plus plan, you can create student accounts in bulk yourself. You can make up to 100 accounts at one time. To create accounts, just follow these steps:
Navigate to your wiki.
Select "Manage Wiki."
Under People select "User Creator."
Choose the wiki you would like to add the users to.
You can enter the list as text or upload an excel or .csv file with usernames and passwords. E-mail addresses aren't required to create accounts. For more information on setting up the list of accounts, see our section on formatting your account list.
The bulk user creator will guide you through the process of setting up your accounts. If you have any questions, send us an e-mail at help@wikispaces.com .
If you do not have a K-12 wiki, we can still create accounts for you. Just email help@wikispaces.com with a list of usernames, email addresses (if you have them - if you don't just leave them out), and passwords in the format described below and we'll create the accounts for you.
How do I format the list for bulk account creation?
To create accounts easily, format your list in the following manner with commas separating usernames, email addresses (if you have them - if you don't just leave them out), and passwords:
A few important notes that will help us create these accounts for you quickly: Usernames
We have a large number of accounts on Wikispaces, so many combinations of first names, last names, and initials are already taken. It's much more likely all the accounts can be made as you ask if you add a school identifier to your students' usernames. For example, if your school is called John Smith High, instead of asking us for the usernames, adam, james, and dom, we recommend jsh-adam, jsh-james, and jsh-dom. Length of Usernames and Passwords
Please make sure that usernames are at least 3 characters long (we allow letters, numbers, underscores _, or dashes -) and that passwords are at least 6 characters long. Which Wiki?
Finally, if you are sending us the list, make sure to let us know which wikis we should add them to as members.
